So they finally announced a june date.

Cannot wait for the 1st press con. with Sonnen and his brazillian blowhards with the blowdarts comments and so on.

[Digo]

If Anderson still thinking that he is an actor here in Brazil, going to every single tv show (from cooking programs to erotic ones), every weekend going with Ronaldo to night clubs and trainning just the minimum as possible, i will hit hard Sonnen + 252 or better.

To his credit, the Spider got mad shuffle skills...

Event will take place in Brazil in 80,000 seat stadium. This is the first time I am actually concerned for a fighter's safety. A riot will break out if Sonnen wins.

I would not be so sure Vitooch ... Anderson never was the man loved by brazilians, like Shogun or Nogueira and after he associate his name to a famous Brazilian soccer club, he brought the rivalry of the fields to the cage, automatically getting an army of haters. If Sonnen wins this fight, he will leave at least half the stadium very happy.
